New mega update for my GameBoy style portfolio

🇬🇧 My Portfolio is Finally Ready! 🚀
After months, I finally took the time to work on the "final" version of my interactive portfolio! 🎮✨

🔥 What's New:

  • 📝 Added a Blog icon (coming soon)
  • 🔑 Enhanced #gamification with new mechanics, including unlocking doors with a key, a hidden mini-level, and a new CTA in the Game Over screen (whether you win or lose!)
  • 📱 Now fully playable on smartphones!
  • 🎁 Added new #easterEggs, new avatar, improved the website core, enhanced the auto-translation system, and fixed several #bugs

If you love websites that feel like real games, give mine a try and let me know what you think! 🎮👇

🚀 The final update will be available soon on matteosantoro.dev.
I just need to complete my blog first!

For now, you can try the beta version here:

Thank you!
I added a bunch of easterEggs, some of which are on the site on specific dates or (spoiler: holidays) some on significant dates.

I imagine that users try to search for them, but I also imagine that by adding the CTA to the gameover some of these are converted into potential customers.

So excited to see the progress of your portfolio, it's one of my favs of all time. There's a 404 for the beta link, unfortunately :( Lemme know when it's fixed, as I'd love to check it out!
